Which combination consists entirely of ways in which a lease of immovable property may end under section 111 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 111 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 lists expiry of the lease term, implied surrender and forfeiture as modes of determination.

Forfeiture operates only when the conditions in clause (g) are met.

Option feedback

Option A

Expiry may end the lease. Waiver of forfeiture and timely rent payment are not modes of determination.

Option B

A demand for rent, transfer of the lessor’s interest and timely rent payment do not by themselves determine the lease.

Option C

Implied surrender can end the lease. A rent demand does not end it, and holding over concerns continued possession under section 116.

Option D

Expiry of the term, implied surrender and forfeiture are each listed in section 111.
